As Social Security careens towards insolvency in the early 2030s, policymakers and the American public will have to reconsider what the old-age pension program is meant to accomplish. Is Social Security meant to provide a safety net for senior citizens, ensuring that those who do not have sufficient private retirement savings are kept out of poverty? Or is it meant to finance lavish retirement lifestyles for those who earned large sums during their working years?

This means they are coming back to Earth…because they know…the truth is about to be revealed to all humanity within a few months. The time is now.Scott C.…
One aspect of the UFO phenomenon that has been going on for quite some time is that of alien abductions. These are the times when people are taken willingly or not, and whisked off to the unknown, often coming back with some very strange stories to tell. Some of these are even weirder than others, and here we will look at some of the more bizarre alien abduction cases there are. Source link
This is story of my 1996 Tour of ‘UFO Hotspots’ in Mexico. It is adapted from Chapter 21 of my 1998 book UFO Sightings – The Evidence (Prometheus Books) —————————————————————————————————————- Probably the area of the greatest UFO activity and excitement in the world today (1996) is in and around Mexico City. UFO proponents often cite the UFO “evidence” from Mexico as the strongest anywhere. When the head of the American UFO group CSETI, Dr. Steven Greer, appeared on the “UFO Coverup” TV special on Larry King Live, October 1, 1994, which was broadcast outdoors near the so-called “Area 51” in…

President Donald Trump told reporters that the US transferred weapons to an Iranian group. The White House intended for the arms to help overthrow the government in Tehran. However, Trump claims the group kept the weapons for themselves. “We sent some guns. A lot of guns. They were supposed to go to the [Iranian] people so they can fight back against these thugs.” The President told reporters on Monday. “The people that they sent the [arms] to kept them. They said, ‘What a beautiful gun. I think I’ll keep it.’ So I’m very upset with a certain group of people,…

Off and on during the Iran war, President Donald Trump has threatened U.S. attacks on civilian infrastructure if the Iranian government fails to meet certain demands. On March 21, Trump wrote on Truth Social that “if Iran doesn’t FULLY OPEN, WITHOUT THREAT, the Strait of Hormuz, within 48 HOURS from this exact point in time, the United States of America will hit and obliterate their various POWER PLANTS, STARTING WITH THE BIGGEST ONE FIRST!” Although Trump later extended that deadline twice, he said March 30 on Truth Social that “if the Hormuz Strait is not immediately ‘Open for Business,’ we…
Last week, while listening to the oral argument in Trump v. Barbara, I was pleasantly surprised to hear Justice Gorsuch ask the Solicitor General and Cecilia Wang, counsel for the ACLU, about Justice Harlan’s constitutional law lectures concerning Wong Kim Ark. Back in 2013, Brian Frye, Michael McCloskey, and I transcribed and published all of Harlan’s lecture. This was done the old-fashioned way, without the benefit of AI. We went to the Rare Books room at the Library of Congress, and photographed more than 500 pages of archived materials. We also published an article in the George Washington Law Review analyzing the…
